## Using the Linux Libre Kernel with Gentoo
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The sys-kernel/gnu-sources package (and in earlier versions, sys-kernel/libre-sources) tracks the current stable gentoo-sources version for the amd64 architecture. To use it, make sure sys-kernel/gnu-sources is unmasked and accepted, along with the virtual/linux-sources package in this overlay. Then `emerge sys-kernel/gnu-sources`.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The Linux Libre sources operate like any other kernel sources package in Gentoo, so to use it, you will need to set your kernel to it with `eselect kernel`, and then build and install it with `genkernel` or manual kernel compilation.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Using the Librem EC ACPI kernel module
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The Librem EC ACPI kernel module should install and be autoamtically availlable (via modprobe) after installation, using `emerge sys-kernel/librem-ec-acpi`. The module is currently installed to `/lib/modules/<kernel>/librem/`.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
When upgrading or installing a new kernel, you will need to do `emerge @modules-rebuild` to install the module for the new kernel.
